About The Straw Bear
The Straw Bear suits travellers who want a no-fuss base near Whittlesey town centre rather than a destination in itself - road-trippers passing through Cambridgeshire, anglers heading for the River Great Ouse, or anyone who just needs a comfortable room and free parking for the night.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and drinks available in room, and breakfast is served each morning to set guests up for the day. There's a restaurant and bar on site, with kids meals available for families, plus outdoor seating in the garden for warmer evenings. Free WiFi and 24 hour reception cover the practical side of a stay, and free on-site parking makes arriving by car straightforward.
The location near the town centre puts a pub or bar, further restaurants and eateries, and entertainment all within easy reach, while the nearby river offers a natural spot for fishing. It's a good fit for guests who want somewhere reliable to rest between activities rather than a country retreat.
